Yeah, was a wild affair really - sloppy, streaky... crazy streaks. Suns win without Booker!!! Grayson Allen was red hot then ice cold lol. Nurk still fouled out but got away with fouls early. Good practice for Jokic in the playoffs. People talk about strategy of making him a scorer etc, I think the best strategy is foul the shit out of him and see if the referees call it. Not like head office wants a Denver Dynasty so why not hack away.
 
Good nba night for the league. HOU blows out wemBUST, celShits lose, Classic KD and the mavDicks eat SHIT.
Lol @ RiCk exposing the Kid and the crybaby luCuck!
 
Weird game i just watched Jokic unlike him with 7 turnovers both teams careless with the ball. Denver getting the lead in the 4th then deciding everyone is shooting besides the best player. Denver came back from big deficit but it was mostly due to the fact that Suns had big stretches of not scoring the ball at all. Snapped Denvers win streak KD was bad and got progressively better during the game hitting some clutch shots to bring it in over time and in overtime with another few clutch shots. Cant really be mad about that loss Denvers execution at the end was just horrible and this against a team that is known to fade in the 4th oh well..

Good game for KD. He needs to come home and let Curry win him another chip.
 
I still can't believe that the Cavs pulled off that comeback, especially down Mitchell. Also...living in a world where you can "challenge" fouls is so strange...in a league where 50% of the calls made anymore would have resulted in you being called a "bitch" or maybe even in a fight if called in a pickup game 15 years ago because they are "playing for the foul" instead of making the shot in key situations.

Celtics were 99,9% favorites to win with 9 minutes left up 22. Lmao!

Lost to Dean Wade and Mazulla. Donovan wasn't even active.

See this guy on IG all the time, love it. I know he cherry picks but damn some of these guys back then had a complete lack of moves. People really are delusional when they say today's game is trash compared to that era because so many players have a bag and a three point shot.

I like him, but JB tries to play him as a stretch 4, and it's not working. He's a traditional 5 w/elite defensive ability. He has next to zero threat as an outside shooter. Don't see him and Allen co-existing long term.

Word. Yeah i just ask because he's an odd case to me. He seems like a good guy, and is very young so he's got plenty of time to get better, but for all of his positives, i can't shake the "i wonder if they'd be better without him" feeling every time i watch the Cavs. Feels like they just flow better? I dunno. At the same time, if he develops a shot, his values skyrockets to the moon.

The comedy aspect is golden, but like you said, you just watch it and you'll see blatant hypocrisy. Terrible defense, no set feet, people carrying the ball, and handchecking not working. Every, fucking, time.

It's like watching a completely different game. Like watching some small high school in Arkansas compared to pros today.
 
Something has to be done before its too late. Nico has done a damn good job with what he's had to work with. The team has 2 super stars plus decent back up at Center and some bench depth. Cuban will resist firing Kidd but it has to be done IMO. Kidd played in Dallas and won a ring in Dallas so firing him it tough but enough is enough, something has to change.
